The Learning Lunch - Is there an app for that?

Mobile apps are designed to simplify and digitise almost every aspect of our modern lives. You can buy groceries from your couch, order take-out, catch a ride within minutes, or find a date online. Apps are not only convenient, but they have the potential to solve real-world problems, which is why civil society organisations are turning to technology to magnify the impact of their work. In recent years, civil society organisations have shown eagerness to invest in tech solutions to address the everyday challenges of those working with young children. In response, DGMT invested in developing a suite of digital tools that could serve the needs of multiple organisations and cover a range of early childhood development services. With the support of behavioural scientists and experts, ECD Connect was born. The base version is free to use and customisable, allowing it to be utilised by a broad community of people, from early learning practitioners to community health workers.  In this podcast, we discuss the challenges and benefits of developing tech solutions for civil society from the perspective of the developers of ECD Connect. We talk to the project’s lead, Peter Schutte, about the evolution of the app; its social purpose and its potential to radically change the traditionally paper-based environment of early education and community health.
